Who Are We?

Volunteers who have received a minimum of 40 hours of in-depth training from educators and specialists from universities, agencies, nature centers, museums, and other organizations. Our training was customized to focus on our own local ecosystems, wildlife, native plants, and natural resource management. In addition, we pursue a minimum of 8 hours of advanced training each year in areas of special interest.

What Do We Do?

In return for our training, we donate at least 40 hours a year of service in the form of community education, demonstration projects, and habitat restoration and improvement.
